C G F Am

[Verse I]
C                   G
Just the other day, I heard my friend say
F                   Am
Life was oh so bad, love was all he had
C                     G
You know all day long I sing sad songs
F                   Am
Got the blues feel, things no doctor can heal
C                     G
You know that's okay, I never change my ways
F                Am
Maybe I am wrong but I'll soon be gone

[Chorus]
C         G
If I fail no one can ever tell
F                 Am
And if I'm wrong, I'll soon be gone

[Solo]
C G F Am

[Chorus]
C         G
If I fail no one can ever tell
F             Am
If I'm wrong, I'll soon be gone

[Verse II]
C                        G
I don't need no friends, I don't play no games
F                           Am
I need lots of room to roam before I go home
C                 G
You know someday, Lord, if things go my way
F                         Am
I'll have a son of my own left here to carry on

[Chorus]
C         G
If I fail no one can ever tell
F                 Am
And if I'm wrong, I'll soon be gone

[Verse III]
C                   G
Just the other day, I heard my friend say
F                            Am
Life would treat him so bad, love was all he had
C                      G
You know all day long, I sing sad songs
F                   Am
Got the blues feel, things no doctor can heal

[Chorus]
C                     G
You know that's okay, I never, never change my ways
F                Am
Maybe I am wrong but I'll soon be gone
